On Tuesday, April 12, “Defiance actions’’ were organized by the Communist Party of Swaziland (CPS) across Swaziland. The date marks 49 years since King Sobhuza II, father of the current monarch, took absolute power in 1973. The key demand of the protests was an end to the absolute monarchy as well as the creation of a people’s government with a multiparty democracy and democratic ownership of the economy.

Hopefully the EFF is still helping with solidarity actions as well. South Africans in general have a lot of power to be able to effect change in Swaziland, they shouldn’t let it go to waste while their brothers and sisters are struggling against oppression.
